What is it like flying on a plane?

Question

I don't know because I have never been on one before.

Answer 1

Its great fun. But when the plane takes off, it makes a lot of noise! And during the journey your ears pop. Its good if you suck on hard sweets. But during the journey its quite fun, and the view from outside is usually awesome. x

Answer 2

I don't know, usually sleep the whole time

Answer 3

It's OK, it's the crashing you wouldn't like.

Answer 4

i dont really like take off and landing but i suppose it is pretty amazing! you get tilted right up for take off and then when your in the air its so smooth it feels like youre on land!

Answer 5

If you are in economy it is cramped. I hate long haul, I can't sleep despite being dog tired and get off the plane feeling like death warmed up.

Give me gliding any day, if you can get a glider flight then go for it, it is the best.

Answer 6

taking off and landing is quite exciting but otherwise its the most boring journey ever. i detest flying but have no choice if i want to travel so far but im sure the first time you fly youll think its amazing

Answer 7

FUN FUN FUN!  Depending on your final altitude, the departure could feel different.  But anywho, if you are going on a flight, do bring gum or something to chew on.  The air pressure change affects your hearing temporarily and you need to constantly decompress your ears.  You could do this by chewing or blowing your nose (not too hard though).

After the departure, it's all just boring really, so bring stuff to read.  Depending on your airline, you might not like airplane food so much, so I'd bring some food (or buy some at the airport because I don't think food is allowed anymore) to snack on.  Also bring an mp3 player for entertainment.  ask for blankets, they should provide that if you're cold.  Depending on how long your flight is, you might have an in flight movie and/or a little portable movie box thing that you have to pay extra for.  There's also usually magazines for shopping in the plane and magazines about travel that will be provided on the back of the seat of the seat in front of you.

Before anything though, make sure you've got your necessary paperwork.  Customs and security are so strict and sometimes not so nice these days (understandable).

landing is fun!  lol.  We travelled extensively last year and after out 10th flight in a span of 2 months we were able to tell who the good landers were and who weren't.  Just watch out if you feel you landed or if it's nice and smooth.

Airplanes are nothing to fear just as much as everyday life.  You risk your life everyday and riding in planes doesn't necessarily make you at higher risk.

Enjoy your flight! =)

Answer 8

Much colder on it than in it.

Answer 9

It is so much fun!  I went on one for the first time last week and I'm 14.  I did get a bit scared but I want to go again now!

Answer 10

It can be scary at times especially with turbulence but its a good experience and there are a lot more crashes on the roads than in the air so nothing to worry about.
